It was the first time our team had set foot on a track this year and we hit the ground running. At a friendly early season meet with no field events, the Rams got a great start to the season on a rare warm afternoon. Facing Comstock, Parchment, K-Christian and Bloomingdale, the Lady Rams finished in 1st place as a team, edging out Parchment 53-51.

Points were scored in all four relays, including a win in the 4x100m relay team of Savanna, Sierra B, Madison and Sierra N. All ten girls who competed today scored points, and about 75% of them came from athletes who are new to the team. Madison won the 100m hurdles and finished 2nd in the 300m hurdles. Rachel finished 3rd in the 800m and Savanna took a 2nd and a 3rd in the 100m and 200m, respectively. Whitney finished 3rd in both the mile and the two-mile, running the fastest times by a G-A female in the past several years.

On the guys' side, Robert was the leading scorer, placing in the high hurdles, and leading off on a 3rd place 4x400m relay team. Danny impressed with his performances in the 100m and 200m, while Nathan represented the distance crew well--despite accidentally running an extra lap in the mile! The boys finished in 5th as a team.

Thanks to all athletes, coaches and parents for your flexibility getting this meet organized at the last minute. The competition was a welcome change of pace from running in the hallways, and we look to build off of that momentum out on our track the rest of the week. Stay tuned for more announcements in the next day or so regarding fundraisers, team dinner and spring break plans.
